A downloadable game for Windows

STORY line

You are one of the lucky undead who absorbed enough soul parts to gain self-consciousness. The overseers of the afterlife was graceful in giving you a chance for a better life; all you have to do is to escape the "simple" dungeon they have designed.

Hence, you embark on the new adventure and journey into the unknown. 

Gameplay

Each run/campaign consists of several (currently 5, might be repeating) levels with the cave-like theme.  The goal of the game is to reach glowing portal hidden somewhere around the map without getting killed.  Around the maps, players can find a variety of props to interact with or break. Additionally, there are several types of mobs scattered around the level. Looting mobs or interacting with entities can give one of following items:

  • Experience - required to level-up and upgrade some abilities
  • Gold - required for buying stuff at the shopkeeper
  • Random soul-shard - to upgrade abilities
  • Relic - to boost some base attributes or just some consumable

Player has 3 types of abilities:

  • Projectile - can shoot stuff....
  • AOE - static entity dealing tick damage
  • Self ability - which affects caster

First 2 type of ability can be expanded to install soul shards at each level up. The remaining type can only be upgraded from the shop.

Currently, there 9 types of soul shards:

  • Damage - increases damage
  • Lifespan - improves duration of ability
  • Force - applies certain force in the specified direction
  • Size - increases size of projectiles and length of AOE ability
  • Explosive radius -  Projectiles deal AOE effect of collision
  • Speed - increases the speed of projectile
  • Coverage - increases the angle of AOE entity
  • Height - increases the height of AOE
  • Solid health - AOE abilities prevent projectiles from passing through

At the moment, soul shards can be installed at "Pause menu", by selecting the desired ability then the soul shard. Total attributes of each ability can also be viewed at pause menu
